Like one of my MR2 friends...he has a hood scoop in the front hood, but the MR2 is MR so I crack jokes every now and then haha.

If you think it may be rice - It's Rice.

That is not a nice hood for many reasons - the one that I notice most is that the scoops are not molded in. You could get a better look by crazy gluing a couple of Summit Racing scoops on a stock hood.

actually this is a "real" scooped hood....those scoops go right through the hood and actually have a function. but still....they are ugly.
